The present invention relates to a pulsation reduction apparatus of a hydraulic piston pump, comprising: a block housing that has one end connected to the first hydraulic circuit and the other end connected to the second hydraulic circuit; a damper that is embedded in the block housing, absorbs pressure resulting from working fluid introduced to the first hydraulic circuit, assists with pressure increase of the second hydraulic circuit, and allows shape deformation; and viscosity damping units that are embedded in the block housing, are arranged between the first hydraulic circuit and the damper and between the second hydraulic circuit and the damper, and reduce viscosity of the working fluid introduced from the first and second hydraulic circuits, thereby reducing pressure pulsation and stably performing shock absorption and pressure increase at the same time with a relatively simple configuration.

A method for determining performance of a battery for a mild hybrid electric vehicle may include detecting a speed of the mild hybrid electric vehicle, a position value of an accelerator pedal, a position value of a brake pedal, and a state of charge (SOC) of the battery, determining whether a regenerative braking condition is satisfied, determining a demand braking amount of a driver, determining a regenerative braking allowance, operating a mild hybrid starter and generator (MHSG) to generate regenerative braking torque corresponding to the regenerative braking allowance, determining a target SOC increment amount, determining an actual SOC increment amount, and determining that the performance of the battery is deteriorated when a difference in value between the target SOC increment amount and the actual SOC increment amount is equal to or greater than a reference value.

A system for controlling a brake of a unit hauled by a work vehicle may generally include a valve assembly. When a speed of the work vehicle exceeds a predetermined speed threshold, the valve assembly may be configured to allow the brake to be actuated when first and second brake pedals of the work vehicle are depressed, either individually or simultaneously. However, when the speed of the work vehicle is less than the predetermined speed threshold, the valve assembly may only be configured to allow the brake to be actuated when both of the first and second brake pedals are depressed simultaneously.

An interlocking brake system structure provides braking force in response to a force caused by operation of brake levers even when disk brakes are used for both front and rear wheel brakes. A saddle riding type vehicle includes an interlocking brake lever on a second handle from among the left handle and the right handle to interlock a front wheel brake device and a rear wheel brake device. An operation force distributor distributes operation force, caused by an operation of the interlocking brake lever, between the front wheel brake device and the rear wheel brake device. An interlocking wire receives and transmits the operation force distributed at the operation force distributor to the front wheel brake device.

A tire pressure controlling device for a tire of a vehicle wheel filled with compressed air, includes a control valve unit for filling the tire with compressed air and/or venting compressed air therefrom. The control valve unit is supplied from a compressor for generating the tire filling pressure. The compressor for compressing air drawn in from the atmosphere is driven by the mechanical rotary movement of the vehicle wheel, as a transmission disposed therebetween transmits the rotary driving movement of the vehicle wheel to the drive shaft of the compressor unit.

The brake cylinder comprises a cylinder body comprising an annular flange and a non-pressure head. The annular flange of the cylinder body defines a plurality of openings. The non-pressure head has an annular flange and a head portion extending from the annular flange. The annular flange of the non-pressure head has a plurality of bosses and a plurality of openings corresponding to and aligned with the plurality of openings in the annular flange of the cylinder body. At least one vent is positioned in one of the plurality of bosses. The cylinder body and the non-pressure head are secured to each other at the respective flanges. The vent is positioned in the boss disposed opposite a mounting portion so that when the brake cylinder is mounted to a railway vehicle, the vent is oriented in a bottom position on the cylinder body with respect to a ground surface.

A hydrostatic piston engine includes an actuating element configured to actuate a brake device to produce a braking force on a rotor of the piston engine. The actuating element is configured to release the brake device when a hydraulic force acts on the actuating element. The hydraulic force prevails in a pressure chamber which is connected to a pressure medium source via a first throttle point. The pressure chamber is also configured to be connected to a pressure medium sink. The hydrostatic piston engine also includes a pressure retention valve device configured to open in a direction of the pressure medium sink. The pressure retention valve device is disposed between the pressure chamber and the pressure medium sink. The opening pressure of the pressure retention valve device is at least equal to the pressure in the pressure chamber which is necessary to release the brake device.

A brake system includes a service brake and a parking brake that brake a vehicle including a lift axle capable of ascending and descending. The brake system further includes a brake blocker device and a controller that controls the brake blocker device. The brake blocker device blocks at least one of supply of compressed air to the service brake and supply of compressed air to the parking brake. The service brake and the parking brake act on the lift axle. The controller actuates the brake blocker device when the lift axle is at a lifted position.
